You should unbolt the jockey wheel and swap it to the other side, that way you can still use the tap
Good tip!!! We actually ended up doing that more recently and it’s so much better. 👌🏼
Hello there your camper looks great If my sister's camper wasn't covered for the winter 🥶 i would go look at hers It looks about the same as yours And i think it's great to change things up to meet your needs you guys take good care of it And the slide bars was a great idea Helps sliding down on rocks Can't wait to see the inside Catch you all on the next one
Fireman 🔥🔥🔥
How epic is that, we’d love to come and see some serious snow like that!! You’re right, it’s perfect for us, everything we need!! Hope you’re doing so well!! 🔥🔥
Looks awesome! Can't wait for the inside vid to see how you've decked it out 🙌
Thank you so much! We can’t wait to show you around the inside! 🤩🤩
It’s actually not a bad set up, few little things that the manufacturer could improve with your feedback, full width pantry on kitchen side would be handy, sliders look ugly hanging so low , bedroom possibly needs tie down ropes for windy nights, electric jack on drawbar
Yeah, we love it! Of course everything isn’t perfect but it’s been pretty good to us so far! 😍
Omg lil!!!! When you were talking about the most spectacular thing and you went to the terrible door handle with the glow light my heart literally stopped. For me in our search for our caravan the ONE AND ONLY THING that made me say in a loud voice, turn and walk away with threats of ….. I will just have it removed. I will cut it off myself!!!! was those BEEPING UGLY DOOR HANDLES!!!! 😫😫😤😤🤯🤯 I just can’t
It was the first thing that has come up that I felt we couldn’t be best friends anymore Lolol
I was laugh so much when thank god you said you think it’s so ugly hahahahaha
Love what you have done with the black upgrades. Looks so good. Can’t wait to see what you have done to the inside. That big storm we were on the edge of our seats. Wowzer about the bedroom door 😮
Oh my gosh!! Tell me about it, what is every caravan company in the world thinking with these stupid disco handles. 😂😂😂 that storm was the most traumatic time ever!! 😅
What a bloody setup! Looks awesome guys 🙌
Thanks so much you two!! 🫶🏼🫶🏼
They have one of the best kitchens ✌
Isn’t it such an epic set up!! 👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼
Great walkthrough, I hadn't seen another Tasmanian with a Bluetongue, we have an XH15 in Launnie.
Oh us too!! We hadn’t met a fellow Tassie Blue Tongue owner! So glad you found us and enjoyed the review. 🤩🤩
Watched your video yesterday. Saw you in Normanton today. Freaky!
Aaah how funny how the world works! If you ever see us again, come and say hi! We love to meet fellow travellers! 💕
Soooooo since you guys are back in Tassie what about a quick walkthrough on the tractor 🤔🤣🤣🤣
Hahahahahah!! We just got back but we promise next time we visit we will do it just for you. 😂😂😂
nice van guys love the kitchen setup ours is a pull out one ,but we make it work .and that cover on the van is a pain to keep clean but they look great on and if you ever wanted to give it a show room shine ,spray tyre shine on it leave on for 10mins then wipe off , the down side its gunner love dirt roads 😁 but if you ever sell it that maybe a selling point, ha-ha
Thanks Greg! How good are they, do you get yours off-road much? Ohh what an epic tip, we will definitely get into that. We love any cleaning tips we can get! 🙌🏼🙌🏼
@@lilandjake well if you pair ever make it to QLD ,Lawn Hill Boodjamulla is a beautiful place and its a adventure getting there as well , and as you guys would know most places worth going start on a dirt road 😁
How perfect!! Adding it to the list now!! Love some local recommendations. 👌🏽👌🏽
good vid guys new subscriber here nice little van cheers from Queensland south
Thanks a million for subscribing!! We appreciate it so much! Cannot wait to get into QLD and do some serious exploring, you’ll have to give us some good tips when we get a bit closer. ✌🏽✌🏽
Yo legends! Just rewatching your van tour. You know with the tap/ jockey wheel issue just change the jockey wheel to the passenger side Keep up the great vids!
Ohhhh you legend!! Good pick up, as you know we absolutely destroyed this jockey wheel so we actually got a new one which is epic! We did exactly that and moved it to the other side. 👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼
@@lilandjake ah nice work. I hadn’t picked up on that!
Guys Thanks for walk through, really interested in the van, it looks great. however, I was reading reviews, I see there is a big number of unhappy customers, particularly with quality and after sales service.. this concerns me greatly…
We’re not affiliated with Blue Tongue at all. We have not had good customer service either. The walk around was purely to share the caravan! 😊
Just move the jockey wheel to the other side
I was going to say exact same thing lol. Rather than thinking about moving tap. Remove 4 nut and move jockey wheel to other side 😂
Hi Lil and Jake, loving your videos!! Wondering where you got lights from in your van??
Hey!!!! We got them off Amazon! They’re like boat ones or something. 😂😂😂
would you both buy a larger caravan next time .if so what type of van🤩
Hmmmm, we’ve been thinking about this a lot lately!! I don’t we would move sideways rather than into a bigger van… hopefully we can tell you more in the coming months!
Hi guys, Great setup! Where did you get your Kitchen Tap from? We are looking to do something similar with our XH15.
It’s just a Bunnings one!! So much better than the original. 👌🏼 it’ll look great in your van! 😍
Not van related but I love your dress … where did you get it or who makes it … looking forward to your walk through
Oh thanks Leanne!! It’s from a brand called daughters of India. I absolutely love their dresses. 😍😍
With regards to the damage to the bed area what holds the roof down. Does it have latches/ slide bolts on the side panels or just gravity holding it down..
Hey Judy, the door has latches but the wind was recorded at 150km/h, it was the most intense we have ever been in. 😅😅
Does the outboard motor cover your number plate on the trailer ?
Hey guys, loving your videos.
We are looking at getting the same van.
How did you come to choose the blue tongue and if you had your time over would you have gone with another brand?
Love it! how many jack knifes/u-turns so far??
Awww you two! 🥰 Far too many to count and far too many have gone wrong. 😂😂
@@lilandjake Apart of the adventure!
Fantastic to see your van guys🎊Jake only you guys could damage shit haha🤦🏻♂️ how on earth do you use the jockey wheel without a flippen handle? 🤷🏼♂️
A lot of skill!! 😂😂😂 the shifter is the new handle. If you know how to get a new handle let us know. 😅😅
@@lilandjake hahaha🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣skill🤦🏻♂️
Have you tried contacting your van dealer? Or you may just have to bit the bullet and buy a new jockey wheel. Don’t think you can buy only a handle. Manufacturers want consumers to spend money on whole products these days!!🤷🏼♂️
Oh man should have done the inside too!!!! 😓
We didn't want the video to be too long and overwhelming! Next week we promise Mel! 😍😍
@@lilandjake van tours usually are longer, people will always watch til the end!!!! They always wanna see the inside!
Mate can you swap the Jockey wheel to the other side???
Hey mate! Thanks for the comment! I originally had my outboard mount on that side, so I couldn't. but if it was, it would cover the compliance plate. The things already broken so maybe if I ever get a new one I might move it. Thanks so much for watching!
@@lilandjake loved the Van we have an Emu Xpedition and love it... safe travels 🙂
